It reminded me of the V for Vendetta movie where they bent the universe on a way that’s didn’t make sense so they could make it about bush doing 9/11
Imo those changes were one of the few things about the film that truly slapped — the UK is quite capable of going full fash without a nuclear apocalypse
Even when I was a lib, it chaffed me that they changed the violent uprising/riot from the end of the book to blowing up a single empty building and taking to the streets in an unrealistically controlled, directed manner. It’s been a while, but I think the monologue even implied that the country’s government isnt even being overthrown, just reforming as a liberal democracy with this single bombing acting as a “warning” towards them.
The ending of the original is quite pessimistic though iirc? I take your point, but imho giving it a big emotive movie-style ending wasn't a terrible choice. See also, Fight Club
